1938 "112" rolling chassis, headlights, frt fenders FOR SALE
Good eye Kevin! Looks like it also has the column shift too - first year for that was '39, wasn't it?

1938 "112" rolling chassis, headlights, frt fenders FOR SALE
Too far for me - Oregon is about 3000 miles, one way. Talking Points: - The front fenders look like they are for a '39 112 (model 90), notice the round holes in the front of the fenders (for the side-grilles), which the '38 fenders do not…

What year coupe body?
38 & 39 are very close, with many of the same or very similiar components (frame, doors, etc). A closer picture of the dash would help, however if it is a 'Utility Coupe' (i.e., commercial series) it could be a '39 with a '…

Everyone - The fault is not with the customers or the members on this Forum, it is with K-Gap, and its managment (or the lack thereof). And, an issue that is not resolved cannot be 'put to bed' or 'buried' - because: - K-Gap is…

Appraisal for a 34 Ford all-steel rod
Were I in your position, I would hold onto it for a while - Once it is gone, it is very difficult to get it back, and you don't want to have a bad case of seller's regret... That having been said - While I agree that Ebay can be a '…

Hudson cars/parts auction. John Soneff
The '39 BB pickup has been for sale for years, and I've seen it go thru at least two auctions during that time - never a sale (reserve not met). From what I recall, the price on it was around $60k. Of note - 3/4 of the Hudsons have a res…

@Marker345 - It costs a lot of money to keep a business going, not to mention the time, and personal expenses. Remember, a business owner still need to pay their mortgage, eat, cloth themselves, insure themselves and the myriad of other expenses th…

@benspaelectricscomau - Ben, when she tell you that? One would think that in the least, there would be a message posted in the WTN, and a recorded message on the phone number. That brings another aspect to the unfolding events... Most likely, they…

Roger - I saw that comment attributed to one of the current owners of K-Gap, and 'chewed it over' for quite a while... It takes a continued investment/re-investment in a business to keep it running. It costs money for product(s)/and to r…

Pickup rear fender brace
Just got the pictures from Jario - IMO, they do not look like they are original. Looks like it was made from angle iron (nothing wrong with that, just stating that it doesn't look like other fender braces I've seen)

Lee - Your new camera might have come with some type of management software (some do). If it did, somewhere within that software should be some editing tools for photos. There are also adjustments within these newer cameras to reduce the size of t…

Lee - your photos are probably too large, some of todays digital cameras take huge photos. Try reducing them to 1024x768 or 800x600 (pixels) (I use Microsoft Office Picture Manager - and resize using a 'percentage of original width x height�…

Truck Cab
Yea, the trucks are nice - but they would have been GREAT with coupe doors and a longer cab! That 6-7 inches would make all the difference in the world - and they would have been all the more popular too.

Electrolysis vs. Electroplating?
Hi Roger - That is my understanding as well. However - Both processes use the same or similiar DC current, and the chemical actions/reactions should be similiar. The sacrificial material (attached to the positive side/current) is drawn to the tar…
